No Pidgey or Rattata

Earlier this year with the arrival of Shiny Pidgey and Rattata, it was announced that Ditto could no longer be disguised as either. As anyone catching Shiny Pidgey or Rattata could suffer if that were a Ditto in disguise. Pokémon  Go swap them for Venonat and Ledyba.

What is Ditto, and why would you want it?

Ditto is one of the Pokémon which did not make an appearance as the game debuted. But after a while, when it appeared, it became of the most fun addition to anyone’s Pokedex. Ditto can turn itself into several Pokémon and now has become a necessity if you want to catch Mythical Mew. Yes, the 5th task in the Mythical Quest for Mew states that you have first to catch a Ditto.

How to spot if there is a Ditto nearby?

You cannot. Ditto disguises itself and is only reportedly spotted in disguises by everyone who caught it. You will only know that it is Ditto after you have caught it. When a Ditto is captured, you will get an Oh instead of a Gotcha.

No more Magikarp, Rattata and Pidgey

Ever since the shiny counterparts of Pidgey, Rattata and Magikarp appeared, Ditto is not able to disguise as them. People catching Shiny Pokémon only to find that it was a Ditto in disguise were more than unhappy, so this step was made towards it.

The dilemma of catching several commons
